Thomas Dean {six months}

Here we are, half way to one year! Despite the craziness of our life these days I honestly have never been happier. Our lives feel so full with our little man and we treasure every minute with him because we know how fast this year flies by. In all honesty, it took me a solid 4-6 months to adjust to being a mommy to Caroline but with Thomas it’s been so different. I don’t mind washing bottles, homemaking baby food or seeing our house wrecked with infant devices. I truly want time to slow down and have enjoyed every stage so much more this time around. We’ve also found ourselves babying Thomas a lot more than we did with Caroline. For example, this week Matt and I finally pulled the trigger and let Thomas sleep in his crib in the nursery instead of in the pack & play next to our bed. And we missed him. However, you cannot beat the sweetest little noises (even at 5:59 am) between these two. Caroline wakes up and is so excited to see her brother in the crib next to hers and they babble back and forth. We sure do love these babies.

First trip to the emergency room for a super high fever. First ear infection, which turned into his first double ear infection. Poor little man battled his second nasty cold for over two weeks – terrible cough that would cause him to vomit up his bottles, too congested to sleep, etc.

How is he 6 months? I'm sure you can't believe it either, but it seems just like yesterday he was being born!! Your family is precious! I can't remember why but what was your reasoning for having them share rooms again? Would you say it was a good decision for all?liz @ sundays with sophie

Happy 6 months sweet Thomas! Yes time sure does fly! I love what you wrote about the adjustment period being a non-issue with Thomas because I already feel that way just in preparing for the new babe, that in my mind, I'm already "there" and am ready to soak it all in because the past 20 months have FLOWN by crazy fast!

Thomas is so handsome! I love reading about how you feel like it's different with #2 than with #1 in the baby phase. I am so nervous what to expect but it seems like even after all you and you're family have been through the past couple of months, that you've made the transition to 2 with ease 🙂

Your children are adorable! I am curious if you have any tips on the two little ones sharing a room at this age? My little ones are 20 months apart and I don't have it in me yet to move my 2 month old in with her sister in fear they will wake each other up.

The sole disadvantage of plastic feeding bottles would be that they must be modified as presently because the plastic is already blurred. this can be to not say that it becomes less safe however solely as a result of you'll have a tough time reading the demarcations for ounces Shara.
